Great Northern Hike Fall 2010

Hi there multi-sport families.

I want to confirm that we are planning a Great Northern Mountain hike for Sunday, Sept 19. This is an epic hike! It is a difficult hike and some may want to consider hiking only ½ or so. BUT, do come along for at least a portion of it. You won’t regret the experience. Once having done it, you will only look forward to doing it again. The views are astounding and the summit is a wonderful achievement. Coach Tom Pacheco is our tour leader, having hiked this peak multiple times. Preparation is key. The first part of the trail is pretty steep; once you reach the ridge the grade is consistent and moderate, with a couple of spots that are quite narrow. The return is similar, understanding that the steeper descent at the end is demanding.
I do recommend this hike it is a very special experience. We are after all, a group that revels in accomplishing difficult tasks!
